Website Purpose

The website provides general information about Ubuntu Pillars Inc. publications, including UBUNTU: I Am Because We Are, My Ubuntu Spirit Journal, related product information, purchase links, educational information, and family-friendly resources. Content is provided for informational purposes only.

Ubuntu Pillars Inc. aims to keep website information accurate and current, but does not guarantee that every description, availability statement, retailer link, format, publication detail, pricing reference, or other content is complete, current, or error-free at all times.

Product pages, purchase links, and availability information are informational only unless the website expressly provides a direct sale transaction under separate checkout terms. If the website links to Amazon or another retailer, purchases are completed through that third party and are subject to the retailer’s own terms, pricing, fulfillment, shipping, taxes, returns, and customer-service policies.

Permitted Use

The website may be used only for lawful purposes, including personal, family, educational, library, community-program, and general informational use. Public links to the website may be shared so long as Ubuntu Pillars Inc. is identified accurately and no false endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation is implied.

Users may not:

• Use the website or its content for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or harmful activity.
• Interfere with the website’s security, availability, or operation.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to non-public systems, accounts, or data.
• Copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, sell, license, or create derivative works from protected content except as allowed by law or with written permission.
• Submit information that is knowingly false, misleading, unlawful, or harmful.
• Use bots, scrapers, or other automated tools in a way that imposes an unreasonable load on the website or bypasses access controls.

Intellectual Property

The Ubuntu Pillars name, logo, branding, website text, design elements, images, illustrations, book and journal materials, and other content on the website are owned by Ubuntu Pillars Inc., Lyse Vondro Kaneza, or their respective licensors unless otherwise stated. All rights are reserved.

No ownership rights are transferred through use of the website. Except for limited personal or informational use allowed under these Terms or applicable law, no content may be reused without permission. Requests for permissions, excerpts, classroom use, bulk orders, or rights inquiries should be sent to [email protected].

Contact Forms and Email Communications

If a user submits an email address or other information through a contact form, email signup form, or other website form, the user represents that the information is accurate, that the user is authorized to provide it, and that the user is requesting communications for the stated purpose of that form.

Ubuntu Pillars Inc. may use Brevo or another service provider to process email subscriptions, contact-form submissions, customer communications, and related messages. Submitting a form does not create a purchase contract, guarantee inventory, or guarantee a response by a specific deadline.

Marketing emails and product updates may be discontinued or changed at any time, and subscribers may unsubscribe using the link in an email or by contacting [email protected].

Third-Party Websites and Services

The website may link to or rely on third-party services, including Amazon, Brevo, hosting providers, form providers, security services, and future analytics tools. Those third parties operate under their own terms, privacy notices, and business practices.

When a user leaves the Ubuntu Pillars website and visits a retailer or third-party site, any purchase, transaction, or interaction is governed by that third party’s terms and policies, not these Terms of Use. Ubuntu Pillars Inc. is not responsible for third-party content, availability, security, fulfillment, pricing, shipping, returns, or other third-party practices.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the website and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Ubuntu Pillars Inc. disclaims warranties including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty that the website will be uninterrupted, secure, accurate, or free from harmful components.

The website content is not legal, financial, medical, psychological, or other professional advice. Educational, parenting, and family-oriented content should be used with appropriate independent judgment based on the child, family, classroom, or organization involved.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Ubuntu Pillars Inc., its officers, directors, employees, authors, contractors, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, or business opportunities arising out of or related to the use of, or inability to use, the website or any third-party services linked from it.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, a user agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Ubuntu Pillars Inc., its officers, directors, employees, authors, contractors, licensors, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from the user’s unlawful conduct, violation of these Terms, infringement of another party’s rights, or submission of unlawful or harmful content through the website.

Changes to the Website or Terms

Ubuntu Pillars Inc. may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the website at any time, including content, forms, retailer links, or availability information. Ubuntu Pillars Inc. may also revise these Terms of Use from time to time to reflect legal, operational, or business changes. Updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the website after revised Terms are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except to the extent that applicable consumer-protection law requires otherwise. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the website shall be brought in the state or federal courts located in Montgomery County, Ohio, unless applicable law requires a different forum or otherwise prohibits this provision.
